[Bug 743630] Re: Cost price - decimal accuracy

 

Hello,

Your idea is indeed interesting. However, this is more a wishlist than a
real bug. We currently do not plan to integrate that sort of
calculation.

Best regards,

Thibault Delavallée.

Title:
  Cost price - decimal accuracy

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This bug might be related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-
  addons/+bug/726816. I'm sorry that I'm this late with "my idea"....

  product_product.standard_price field shouldn't gets its precision
  neither from 'account' nor from 'purchase price' - it should have it's
  own accuracy entry in 'decimal accuracy'

  I don't want my purchase orders calculated or printed with 6 digits,
  and I don't want any outgoing invoice calculated or printed with 6
  digits.

  But for average price calculation I NEED more than 2 digits!

  example:

  Create new product, costing method = average price (set to 0,00)

  Create PO_1: 10 pce, price 1,- Euro, reception
  -> move anlaysis (total): qty 10, value 10,- Euro
  -> product.form average price = 1,-

  Create PO_2: 10 pce, price 1,50 Euro, reception
  -> move analysis (total): qty 20, value 25,- Euro
  -> product.form average price = 1,25

  Create delivery order: 10 pce, process and validate
  -> move analysis (total): qty 10, value 12,50 Euro
  -> product.form average price = 1,25

  Create PO_3 10 pce, price 1,- Euro, reception
  -> move analysis (total): qty 20, value 22,40 Euro
  Product.form average price = 1,12

  
  This is how OpenERP book explains the average price calculation formula:
  NP = (OP * QS + PP * QR) / (QS + QR), 
  where the following notation is used:
  •  NP: New Price,
  •  OP: Old Price,
  •  QS: Quantity actually in Stock,
  •  PP: Price Paid for the quantity received,
  •  QR: Quantity Received.

  In my example (last recalculation of average price through reception PO_3) it would mean:
  OP = 1,25
  QS = 10
  PP = 1,00
  QR = 10

  NP = (1,25 * 10 + 1,00 * 10) / (10 + 10) = 1,125

  first issue:
  The stock value after the last reception (PO3) is 22,50 Euro (1,25 * 10 + 1,00 * 10), move analysis says: 22,40 Euro

  second issue:
  Rounding cost price: 1,125 should have get rounded up to 1,13 instead of down to 1,12

  
  So, I don't need 6 digits when I purchase for 1,50 Euro; I don't need 6 digits when I sale for 2,75 Euro.

  But I need a solution for 
  A) wrong stock value
  B) wrong average price
